Cornea organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The cornea is the transparent outermost surface of the eye, consisting of a stratified epithelium, a collagenous stroma and an innermost single-cell layered endothelium and providing 2/3 of the refractive power of the eye. Multiple diseases of the cornea

A single cell atlas of human cornea that defines its development, limbal progenitor cells and their interactions with the immune cells

open access: yesThe ocular surface, 2021
Purpose Single cell (sc) analyses of key embryonic, fetal and adult stages were performed to generate a comprehensive single cell atlas of all the corneal and adjacent conjunctival cell types from development to adulthood.

Regenerative therapy for the Cornea.

open access: yesProgress in retinal and eye research, 2021
The cornea is the outmost layer of the eye, unique in its transparency and strength. The cornea not only transmits the light essential for vision, also refracts light, giving focus to images.

Decellularization and recellularization of cornea: Progress towards a donor alternative.

open access: yesMethods, 2020
The global shortage of donor corneas for transplantation has led to corneal bioengineering being investigated as a method to generate transplantable tissues.

Semaphorin3A induces nerve regeneration in the adult cornea-a switch from its repulsive role in development

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The peripheral sensory nerves that innervate the cornea can be easily damaged by trauma, surgery, infection or diabetes. Several growth factors and axon guidance molecules, such as Semaphorin3A (Sema3A) are upregulated upon cornea injury.

Glycosaminoglycans in the human cornea: age-related changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
AIM: To investigate possible age-related changes in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the human cornea. The substances today called GAGs were previously referred to as mucopolysaccharides.

Cornea modelling [PDF]

open access: yesEye and Vision, 2020
AbstractBackgroundBiomechanics introduces numerous technologies to support clinical practice in ophthalmology, with the goal of improving surgical outcomes and to develop new advanced technologies with minimum impact on clinical training. Unfortunately, a few misconceptions on the way that computational methods should be applied to living tissues ...

Effect of corneal light scatter on vision: a review of the literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The cornea is the transparent connective tissue window at the front of the eye. The physiological role of the cornea is to conduct external light into the eye, focus it, together with the lens, onto the retina, and to provide rigidity to the entire ...

DMEK with endophotocoagulation and cyst wall removal for corneal endothelial decompensation due to iris cyst

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2022
Purpose: Iris cysts may arise secondary to surgical or nonsurgical trauma, potentially leading to corneal decompensation via mechanical injury to the adjacent endothelium.
